Lucid Dreams
Techniques used: DILD/DEILD Lucid non-lucid I went asleep on accident, while a tv was on, I was going to turn it off and MILD, but I passed out. I'm not entirely sure where the dream started off, but I know I was at an egyptian village of some sort, when I saw two of these statues, in a mountain, there was a dog head thing like those statues for the emperors, and there was some other statue of some smaller person or something. I looked at them, and a man was standing atop one of the statues, the one that I can't explain. He said, "you know these vines will grow, and the statues will be completed, and mine will grow first, and I will become it, and then yours will grow. The gods have decided this for us." I assumed he meant the greek gods for some reason, and then there were a ton of egyptians behind me that were arguing that that was impossible, and he responded "No it's not, you see the vines sprouting from the bottom, they will grow, and us 2 will have the choice to become immortal." I told himI didn't want to be immortal, and he said it would be great. I told him that I wouldn't wanna be immortal unless I could become a god, or steal some of the gods cool shit. He said I can do that, and I responded that I would love to then. That's when shit started happening, The villagers kept trying to cut down the vines to stop it from growing (I'm guessing to not displease the gods) but it only slowed down the other guys statue, and not by that much. I knew mine was going to be giant, a humongous human, with a face of of a dog human thing. I watched it third person. I watched for a long time (30 minutes no joke). It built very slowly in front of my eyes. I knew that If I went away it would go quicker, so I turned my head around, and then looked back, it was half way done. I tried again. Still half. That's when all of a sudden, a bunch of pokemon started attacking the vines along with the egyptians. I was thinking "wtf, pokemon?" and I believe that's what snapped me into lucidity. I ignored them so they would go away. Then raiku came up to me and the other guy with some other pokemon (human shaped, almost) and we started battling. I don't remember much of it. I remember that I never attacked raiku, and the other pokemon kept putting it's body into a white crysalis thing which would explode and shoot out 6 directions (then five, then 4, and so on) I know we flew into space at one point, and I thought "Good to know my dreams don't stick to one venue, I haven't been to space yet" and raiku talked a lot. I flew back down and looked at my statue. Arms were done, down to the waist, great, but it'll take another hour before it's finished. The other guys was done, but 1/3 of the size. He flew around in it, it turned out to have no legs. I woke up. Looked to my right. Pokemon was on. The movie with raiku, great. I put my head back and fell asleep again, dream chaining. I was back in the egyptian place. Didn't see my statue, didn't care, I haven't done anything yet, I needed to do something. I went outside of the village (not sure how, I think I jumped) and I found a small arena. About a football feild big,maybe a little less. There were at least 5 dreamers there. I didn't think anything of it, I just knew that this was the place to practice. And practice I did. I spoke to another dreamer about building that statue, and he said that it was above him, but he had a feeling that I could materialize it no problem. I tried materializing in front of me, but no go, I tried turning around and summoning it, but when I turned around, I realized that I could'nt, because of the other dreamers. I would have to materialize it in front of their eyes, just like they were mine, as I wasn't about to ask if everyone else could turn around with me, I gave up. I saw someone jump out of the area super high, and I figure I'd practice my jumping skills. I only did a weeak jump at first (maybe 1 story) and I realized that I felt like I was weighed down by my body. I told my self that this is a dream, my body has no weight. I jumped a good 4 stories that time. Much better. I jumped out of the arena, maybe 20 stories high, perfect. I woke up again. Opened my eyes, closed them, DEILDed. I was by trees (where I landed essentially). I was attacked by raiku and the other pokemon. That's when I realized Raiku didn't really fight. He had a minute monologue and then he said that since the other pokemon (still can't remember his name) was on his last shell, it would turn black, and then purple, and when it turned purple he would shoot at me, and then he would blow up, killing me along with him. All of a sudden his shell turned black. I was wondering if it was purple or black, but then I figured it must've been black since I'm alive. I woke up again. DEILDed again. I was in the same place, but thank god that pokemon movie was over, or I at least didn't notice it, cause the pokemon weren't there again. I hate it when I sleep with a tv on nowadays, because I'll either intentionally not dream, or dream, and get interrupted by TV characters or something (I once had a dream where I was in a rap contest, I was non lucid, but very excited, I was about to make some really good rhymes, and all of a sudden, a car commercial turned on with the music too loud, so I couldn't rap to it. It drowned out my voice. Woke up pissed). I was by the trees, and I remember hearing one of the dreamers saying that he was looking for something that was high in a tree in his video game. I believe it was a water something from a Zelda game (I feel like I remember the game too). I flung up in the trees, and swung on the branches, I felt a little bit of pain when I hit some branches, so I desensitized my body, other than my hand, and phased through small branches. I only went through three trees, and it took me about 10 seconds, it was blue, ocarina looking thing (it wasn't the ocarina) and It's so familiar looking. I though "hahah, in the game it takes like 10 minute to climb those trees. I carried it with me by dematerializing it. Then I hopped back to the arena. I don't recall giving it to any other dreamer, but the first dreamer I met was there again. He said he was surprised I didn't make my statue. There was a runescape looking construction ground, like 10' by 50'. I asked him if anyone was using it, "No they just left," Sweet. I knew this was a dream, and I knew I could do anything. I had to learn to materialize sooner or later, so why not now? I tried materializing the whole thing, but it was too big. Instead, I floated up a few feet in the air, and made part of the ground into sand. I brought up a wall of it (materializing it, not TKing the sand, it just helped with the color/drawboard) first thing to do was the hair thing. I moved the wall and turned it into the hair piece things that egyptians would often have. tThen I materialized half the face on both sides. Woops, put the fae backwards. I TKed it into normal position, and the face didn't stick out enough, I pulled the face out with TK, and then I realized it was too sharp looking, like crystally, Sharp as in if your on photoshop and oversharpen something, so I tried to unsharpen it, but my focus just made the entire face a bunch of dots, so I tried blurring it, and made it into a wall. I decided to just put a face there, and then materialized the body of a dog thing, like a normal egyptian statue. "Yay" I thought, "I learned construction!" I walked about to see what everyone else was training on, and some some interesting stuff. One person was playing with springs, and they were bouncing around, and then I noticed one of them had a fireeater from mario on it, sort of coiled into a spring. I made one of my own, and bounced it. It shot a fireball every time that side hit the ground, in any direction you wanted. Amazing. I looked around, there were some more on the wall and some more on the ground. It seemed like a ew ppl had been playing with it (I think there were only 3 people left in there at the time, and one of them definitely wasn't lucid) It's possible that the other two were battling teir springs against each other, like robots. I didn't pay attention, but I noticed that another one had an area of effect attac, and one of them was sheilding a fern. If it was a battle, then I'm guessing the point was to kill the other persons fern. I was thinking of ways I could use this in real battle when I woke up. I felt that I had trained enough, and my body was getting too awake to sleep (or too tired to dream?). Also, Lucid fragment: This was the dream before the Egypt/training ones. I was in my backyard, I went to the front, a friend of mine was there, he gave me a pill, it looked like ecstasy, it took me a while, but I decided it was ecstasy. I figured out it was a dream, and made six of them, all of a sudden, a cop pulled into my driveway while I was playing with the rolls. I thought that she was gonna frisk me, then I thought no, cops don't normally frisk you, but then I remembered it was a dream, and she came out, about to frisk me (after I put the rolls in my pocket). I grabbed some batons (I just grabbed for a weapon from my sides, talk about schema right there, I must have been thinking of them since there was a cop in front of me) she pulled out two small sticks (stun rods? looked dagger size though) I was attacking her, but I was too slow, she didn't hit me back (she was afraid to go by the big weapons) but then I thought "This is a dream, these weapons are weightless" and I started attacking faster and faster until I could overpower her, then another girl joined in with two daggers. That was the last thing I could remember before changing scenes to that egyptian dream. Feats learned: Superjump, Construction, body desensitization (not feeling/ignoring a sense or body part)
I had this dream (or series of interconnected dreams) this night, when I fell asleep from 6:00AM-5:00PM. I had used autosuggestion very loosely, so I'll call it a DILD. Technique used: DILD Length: 45 min lucid non-lucid not a dream I forgot a lot of the dream (I didn't write it in my RL DJ, and wasn't able to type this part till now, a good 6 hours later) but I do remember fragments. Also, it's good to note that I was starving when I went to sleep. So, the dream started with a lot of my brother driving and a few of my cousins, we all hung out, and then we had to drive to get some food at my aunts. We got there, and there was a teleporter somewhere. I think I used the teleporter to teleport to my next dream scene. This next part was all extremely vivid. I walked from my mom's car to a restaurant with her and my dad. My dad and I walked to the staff room (for a good reason I can't remember), which ended up being a large windowed room, with three layers of windows till there was the outside. I thought of doing a reality check, since that was weird. It was odd though, my reality check failed, but I still had the feeling I was in a dream. I tried two more times, and it sort of worked, but I realized I must be in a dream anyway. I wasn't very lucid, because of the shoddy RCs I think, but I was with my dad, and I knew that it could be the real him in the dream world, so I told him I was in a dream, that we were in a dream. He said he knew. I asked him if he realized that that meant we could do anything, and he said no we can't (I think). I tried to break a glass window, but it didn't break. My dad said something about it, and I told him I could cut it with my fingers. I put my finger to the glass and did a very shitty circle, cutting it through. I broke that part off, then broke off the rest mentally. My dad tried as well, but instead broke it physically when he was done. For some reason doing this interested me a lot, and after talking to him a little bit about dreams, I kept doing this with the windows until I lost lucidity and found myself back in the restaurant with my dad. It was a FA, I told him I just had a dream, and he was in it. I asked him what he did in his dream. He said he was with me, but he was at our basement or something, and we were making holes in the tiling. He added some other info, about us both knowing it was a dream, and I concluded it was a shared dream, but not a very good connection. I woke up, and fell back asleep. I was in a different place in the restaurant, and I did another RC. Shoddy again, but I still realized I was dreaming. My dad was with me, and we were atop a spiral staircase, all white, with a very interesting curvy railing. I saw a baby girl sitting at the very end of the railing, and I decided to go grab her, I was about to slide to the bottom, when I FA'd again in the restaurant with my mom and dad. I don't remember what happened after that, but after a minute or so I woke up IRL. It was very interesting, and I felt that my dad was actually there. It seems to me that I kept switching from the astral plane into my dream world, and that in the astral plane, RCs don't work as well, or the vividness throws me off, and I only was with my dad in the astral plane. I'll ask my dad what he dreamed about and see if we made a connection, and I'll update this accordingly. EDIT: I talked to him. He said it happened. He remembered a great deal more than I did. We also got high together, had sex with some people and he said We fell right after the glass building thing. That was when I lost lucidity, so I was probably a DC at that point, otherwise I would have flown, or at least remembered it from terror. He remembered nothing about a restaurant, he said that never happened. I find it pretty probable that I met up with him in the astral plane, and that the other parts where I wasn't lucid was in my inner dream world or something. This is my first successful (remembered) shared dream.

Technique used: MILD Length: 30+ min, 5+ min lucid lucid non-lucid not a dream Not a very eventful dream. Although a lot of stuff happened, I tried too DEILD back into it, and forgot the whole thing Some stuff happened with my little cousin, she came into my room, she really liked me, we hung out for like 10 min, she disappeared. I did a nose RC, I became lucid. I first tried to fly up through the ceiling, but was having trouble getting through, so left through a closed window instead. I flew around the street a bit. I went to some business building, and found a nice looking girl. I think I was going to have sex with her, but she disappeared. I roamed around the building instead, seeing a lot of people, some of which looked like the businessmen from the Tool music video of Parabola. A lot of other non-lucid stuff happened for a long time with my cousin (she's like 7, I haven't seen her lately, and don't really like her. Before I slept, I decided to just do a MILD where I repeated "I should do a reality check". It seemed to work, and I think I'm gonna use that mantra for my other MILDs too. Too bad about the recall though. I'm pretty sure some fun stuff happened in that building... I wonder if I tried the TOTM?
Technique: MILD Non-lucid Lucid Real life I havent meditated for a good couple months, although I always considered it beneficial and I enjoyed doing it. Having gotten back into lucid dreaming a week or so ago (an absence of almost a year, I used to and still can lucid dream at will), I also got back into conscience awareness and meditation. I did a basic silencing the mind meditation for 20 minutes, then fell asleep using MILD. My dream started off with me walking out of a building/courthouse with my mom, and she said something very odd, so I did a reality check. I did a nose RC and instantly became fully lucid. The dream was extraordinarily vivid, and I felt completely aware, and in control. I started by simply looking around and sat down in the road and touched the ground. It had tons of pebbles, like any road in RL, and I could feel them perfectly. I knew I was going to have a long lucid dream, and decided first to call someone to complete the TOTM. I was messing with my phone, but couldn't find my contacts. I didn't really feel like it was a good TOTM and couldn't remember the advanced one, so instead I decided to jump off of a skyscraper. I flew high into the air, then said "eh, fuck it I'm high enough" and just went into a free fall. I fell a few hundred feet very calmly and happily, and stopped an inch above the ground. Being done with my free fall, I closed my eyes and teleported somewhere, not deciding where, just wanting to go somewhere else. I found myself in a car, driving down an empty highway, not liking the idea of driving in a dream, I flew through the hood and landed back on the highway. Now it was full of cars. I went on all fours and started running. I got faster, and I got bigger. In just about two seconds I was larger than most office complexes, and running faster than the speed of light. I was crushing all the cars, and decided to make my hands more crushy. I turned them into giant black masses that looked like the hammerfist transformation in prototype. I saw a large black building and decided to get off the highway, and jumped into it, midair turning into a giant beast that looked somewhat like Spidermans Venom, and smashed 1/4 of the building off, with wires and pipes everwhere. When I crushed it I turned back into a normal sized human, floating above the wreckage, and I saw a couple police cars on the road with their sirens on. I blinked and teleported into the uncrushed part of the building. I lost lucidity, whether cause of the police or what happened next idk. It seemed like I just lost awareness, but I was still calm. I forgot something that happened in between the teleporting and this, but next I remember I was given a heavy machine gun by some guy, looked like Price from Call of Duty. He didn't say anything (I never talk to DCs) but when he gave me the gun I had a HUD show up, showing my health, a crosshair, and unlimited bullets, and some bar that didn't seem to have a purpose. I went in, and there were two fat guys with miniguns (they looked like Heavys from Team fortress 2, they were even cell shaded, but had black shirts and a black hat/beanie, like a thief). I circled them both (Price disappeared) and whenever my crosshair went onto one of them it would turn to static for some reason. I shot them both a bit when I saw the static, but it seemed as if the bullets went through them. Then I woke up, I opened my eyes instantly, and looked around a little, feeling the calm awareness from meditating. I noticed the lights were on, and immediately went to write down in my notebook DJ. I wrote a half a sentence, looked at it (trying to remember more) and I read up until the last word, and then it became blurry and all of a sudden I woke up. The dream lasted at least 30+ minutes. The fact that the Heavys were cell-shaded interests me, I'm going to eventually apply that to the rest of the dream world, and make it look like a dream borderlands. I do remember once having a non-lucid where I saw a cartoon character. It was either Peter from Family Guy, or some fat guy, it was hard to remember. Having both those experiences, I know I can have a cartoon dream, and I'm going to try to have a 2d cartoon dream eventually... once I figure out how it'd look/work...
